Study Notes

Dimensioning Principles

  • Dimension features should be attached to the view where the feature's shape is best shown.
  • Dimensions should be given to rough surfaces rather than finished surfaces whenever possible.
  • Dimensions should be given between points or surfaces that have a functional relation to each other or that control the location of mating parts.
  • Dimensions should not be duplicated to ensure clarity and accuracy.
  • Dimensions should not be placed on a view unless clarity is promoted and long extension lines are avoided.
  • Each dimension should be given clearly so that it can be interpreted in only one way.

Dimension Placement

  • Longer dimensions should be placed outside all intermediate dimensions to avoid crossing extension lines.
  • Dimensions applying to two adjacent views should be placed between views, unless clarity is promoted by placing some of them outside.

Dimensioning to Surfaces and Lines

  • Dimensions should be given to surfaces or lines that are functional or control the location of mating parts.
  • Dimensions should not be given to hidden lines wherever possible.
  • Dimensions should be given to rough surfaces or important centerlines, in preference to finished surfaces, wherever possible.
